Slang??

Dr_Freak2

I'm not going to discuss it in depth.However,I want to know the meaning of "Kick ass" in america's slang.:p Because when I browsed the website,I sometimes see "Kick ass" website from other's message.

So,what does it mean?Slang can really make you confuse if you are not local people.🙂

Well im not sure if its different over in the US but in AUS it means in normally terms excellent, or cool(Sorta slang there), or even nice

planetsim is correct for the US.

To put it in other terms... "kick ass" roughly means "bad ass", when used for example:
"The stereo in my friend's car is bad ass."

Of course "bad ass" can also mean "tough", as in a thug or bully.

Clear? 🙂 🙂

Yeah, not to be confused with "clown ass", which is pretty much the opposite. As in "That guy is a clown ass."

epimeth

basically, a kick ass site will kick your ass... so you gotta show it some respect

always good when combined with things like: "Why should I have to change MY name? He's the one who sucks!"

Bollox....

As in "Thats the Dogs bollox !" <- In a good way

Or "Thats bollox !" <- In a bad way

All in the pronunciation and emphasis....

I'm still trying to understand the usage of the phrase "It's the tits."

Just sounds silly to me.

I appreciate all you guys gave me swift response on my question.🙂

Well, Kick ass means great,cool.Generally speaking,it's something positive.

And how about dude?Bad dude or something like that....

I appreciate your help.😃 It seems like taking English lesson right now...:p

planetsim

I usually only say dude if i dont know there name, or im just generally feeling lazy.

planetsim

If you want an english lesson however on slang theres so many more than kickass, dude

Theres
sick = Usually meaning that your not feeling well, or good (Like Kick ass)
sweet = Usually meaning that something is nice tasting or the same as (sick and kickass)

get stuffed = Get lost, i dont wanna see you, maybe saying something you dont wanna do eg.

parent: do your homework now
kid: get stuffed, i aint doing it

And then of course you can go out and kick ass (or "prod buttock" as my Discworld-fixated friend would say).

That's when you go out and do something make people (the possessors of said "asses") respect you.
